options available to respondents before notice issued

[Dr. Ashok Dhamija]

Yes, it should be possible to file caveat in the situation described by you.

If a notice is issued by the Supreme Court in the SLP, then you can argue on merits of the case in order to get it dismissed.

Merely because an SLP is filed, there is no automatic extension of the time period directed by the high court for maintaining the status quo. From the facts mentioned by you, it appears that the extension of this period will rather act against you, so I fail to understand why do you want to get this period extended?
